showing a shallow depth of field- sharp focus in one area gradual blurring of the background and the foreground of whatever detailed, up close shots you are doing of food or other tight scenes/items ("bokeh"). you'll need a lens that can be adjusted to that. agreed on keh.com and amazon for used, cheap cams with a used cheap 35mm or 50mm f1.4 lens.
